It’s hard to root for the American car companies when they keep producing more and more garbage like this. For the last 30 years, American car companies have invested their money lawyers and lobbyists to fight higher fuel efficiency standards, while the Japanese car manufacturers put their money into engineers and scientists.

Now that we’ve got gas at $3.50 per gallon in some places, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see why the American car industry is dying a slow and painful death.

Chrysler is American in legacy only. It’s a German company that’s making crap while the parent company is draining the cash reserves. Now that the drain has been completed, the empty carcass will be cast aside.

I wouldn’t buy a Chrysler now, no way.

The Avenger/Sebring beat the Toyota Camry in fuel economy and they tie the Honda Accord.

Get your facts straight.
